In this paper we explore database segmentation in the context of a column-store DBMS targeted at a scientific database. We present a novel hardware- and scheme-oblivious segmentati...
This paper explores the utilization of adaptive triangular meshes representing gray-level images to accelerate basic image processing operations. In particular, two algorithms for...
The satisfiability test checks, whether or not the evaluation of a query returns the empty set for any input document, and can be used in query optimization for avoiding the submis...
The typical workload in a database system consists of a mixture of multiple queries of different types, running concurrently and interacting with each other. Hence, optimizing per...
The importance of query processing over uncertain data has recently arisen due to its wide usage in many real-world applications. In the context of uncertain databases, previous wo...
